Day 1 with Jynxie
Sooo, yeah. This guy doesn’t really NEED a reference, but I need one of him because I need to get re-used to drawing him. lD It’s been a REALLY long time.
Tomorrow there will probably be more of our buddy Remy, here.
Let the games BEGIN!
This is gonna be even more difficult than the last one. XD
The Ageless - Simple as that. Remy doesn’t age or get sick. He doesn’t really need to breathe or eat, either, so the only way to really off him is a critical wound. lD (But he’s gone almost 400 years without that ever happening, so I think he’s gonna be okay for a while.)
Blow You Away - Wind is his natural element, and he is VERY good at air-related magic and manipulation. (And, thought he really shouldn’t be able to, he’ll use fire if he really needs the raw power. No one’s really questioned why he can do it, as long as it’s effective.)
Living Legend - Being almost 400 years old, Remy’s been around and has done plenty of things that people remembered and passed on to others. Some of which he doesn’t even remember. You can see where this can cause some confusion on his and Skyler’s part in certain cases.
So Proud of You - Remy is basically Skyler’s adoptive father. And while she got older, the less he needed to be a parent and could settle more into the more comfortable role of a close friend (to his relief. Parenting is HARD), he is still very proud of her.
Deadpan Snarker - He has a lot of fun with this. Skyler will mockingly scold him if he steps out of line, her being the more polite of the two, but he usually tones it down when it’s obviously in bad taste.
HOO-BOY.
All Part of the Job - Suuuuure, her life’s always on the line and she is technically homeless and she had a chance at a normal life at one point, but she loves her job and can’t imagine doing anything else.
Beware the Nice Ones - Self-explanitory,
(Leads into Tranquil Fury - Oh, God, Skyler is terrifying sometimes…good lord.)
Undying Loyalty - Remy.
Not Afraid to Die - The closest I could find to Skyler’s near-stupid bravery and how she almost completely lacks the ability to feel (or recognize) fear. Couple this with her surprising stubbornness in certain situations, and she will probably get herself killed if she’s not stopped (and she’s been like this since she was a kid. I feel bad for Remy). Still, she’s still alive and this has saved her, Remy’s, and other peoples’ behinds, so she must have SOME plan or something…right?
Because TV Tropes is totally not a sinkhole that will make me unable to leave the computer for hours, I’ll do this. Ask away, and I’ll trope.
Also, the TMI Character Tuesday is still open because yeah if you’ve ever wanted to ask inappropriate stuff now’s your chance.
Omg yes plz *v* This should be fun (though I already regret entering the black hole that is TV Tropes)
Yes. This.
Because I still feel terrible and I need a distraction. Although it would probably help if ya’ll knew other characters beside Leisi:
The Whellis crew: Left to right Whellis, Brook, Matt, Ethan, Nuca
Kitty and Clay (also from Whellis)
And of course Leisi and her silly family.
Fine. FINE. THis has been bouncing around on Tumblr all day! And most of yesterday! FINE.
Haven’t done this in a while. lD And with ArtSlam coming up, WHY NOT?
Ask about worlds, cultures, technology, and even ask the characters themselves some stuff. HAVE AT IT!
(Now, to re-learn to draw on this stinkin’ tablet. lD)
Shut up, this was fun and I thought it was cute…
And I need to figure out Skyler’s knife sheaths. lD
Jynxie and I have been conspiring about a collaboration for…ages, actually, but I haven’t gotten much done aside from thinking up the adorkable ways our characters would act around each other. Skyler belongs to her, Xavier is my boy, and if I’m 100% honest with myself I probably ship them a little DON’T JUDGE ME
If you’re wondering why they’re goofing around with octopuses, it’s because they’re actually these:
Squawktopusus are basically colorful cephalopods with external gills resembling feathers, and spend a few months a year completely airborn, drifting around in a mass migration like a bunch of weird balloons. They’re considered pests (like seagulls, almost), but are pretty friendly animals and don’t mind getting squished around. And the little baby ones are CUTE.
Awwww! There is so much cute in this I can’t even find an appropriate word for it all. lD (And I think I ship them a little, too…not gonna lie. XD)
And adorkable interactions, you say? Now I’m curious…Oh, and I really want to cuddle one of those squawktopusus. They’re just so ADORABLE.
I usually don’t fan-out at stuff, but I decided to point out a few things that I just want to get out there.
If you don’t want to hear/read my analysis and gushing over how badass Lin is I mean holy shit, please skip this. XD
